PIANOs AND ORGANHS AT REAL BAn
pAINs.--ilefisrs. Ludden & Bates,
proprieto,rs of the Great Southern
Music House, at Savannah, Ga.,
present one of their attractivo ad
vertisemerts to,day, which should
raceive the attention of all needing
pnus!eal instruments. The special
offers they n ake on pianos. and
organs frouin makers of established
reputatioh are the lowest we have
yet seen, and when the superb
Chickering, Knabe and Mathushek
Pianos and unrivaled Mason &
H$unlin and Peloubet & Pelton Or
gans can be had for -so little money,
it is indeed surprising that people
will so foolishly throw away their
money in the purchase of unknown
instruments from unknown and en
tirely irresponsible doalers or pre
tended manufacturers at the Yorth.
The caution given by Messrs. Lud
den & Bates concerning such com
paratively worthless instrurnents is
well timed, and should be heeded.
We have in the South responsible
and honest dealers who will furnish
selected instruments at the very
lowest rates possible, and not a
dollar can be saved by sending
North. Messrs. I ndden & Bates
are now the le:iding wholesale piano
and organ dealert in the Soutlh And
have a national reputation for buy
ing and selling cheap. Misrepr.?sen
tatinn in the sale of instruments is
not tolerated Iby tlen and those
who are not judguq of musicQl
instrunments need not have the
slightest fear of being imposad on
or overcharged. One uniform cash
price is their rule, and their state
ments can be implicitly rtelied on.
They do not deceive patrons with
humbug offers of $1,000 Pianos at
$275, $280, Organs at $65, but
their prices are always as low as the
lowest, and we do not know of a
house in the entiro United States
thbat sells reliable instruments so
astonishingly low. To lead all in
prices of Standard Intrpmnents is
"their pride and the~y cain certainly
ilo it. Get their prices bforeo you

'Tho Reoent F,eunion at Ohester--A Full
Turnout--A Fi.t Presorpa.1;en---T1ie
Address of 94Alston, etc., etc.
[FROM OUR SrBCJAT gU'ponyRa.J
Pursuant to a preyiops notie, the
surviving members of the~ 6th 5. C.
Volunteers nyet at Choster on the
1.5th instant for the purposo qf ore
ganizirig a SurYvvrs' Association.
,At 9 o'clock, a.. 'l., the Fairfield
member.s were me~t a .short distance
from town by Captain Cousar,,
chairman of the comrrlitt,ee of arr~
rangements, and under hi.e si;per
vision a procession wae igrmied,
headed by' thb .C1tester Cornet Band,
and the line of rearoh taken up for
the town. Arriving iin town, the
procession passed through the pub
lic squar.e, wbere the Lee Light In
.fantry was parading under command
of Lieutenant McFadden. As the
veterens passed this splendid corps,
the guns of the latter were lbro1nglit
to the "present," the former ac
knowledging the salute by uncover
jng their.. heads. Prior to assem..
bling for their parade the survivor*s
-were taken charge of by the coms%
mnittee of arrangements, and all
their wants duly administered to.
At 10 o'clock, a. mn., the Rtegiment
'was formed in front of the Baptist
church by Capt. H. A. Gaillard, ex
adjutnt., and by him turned over to
Capt. A. Q. Wylie, of Chester, ex
commander of Company "F."
Headed by the Chester Cornet
Band, and under tho escort of the
Lee Light Infaz4ry, th.e survivors
ner.ehed t0 thq court,lhouse. The
meeting was called to order by
, Capt. WV. D. G3ousar, and on his
anoti Genoa1 ratto a - .munI
mously elected chairman. Capt. But
lor P. Alston of Company "B," hav
ing been selectel to deliver an ad.
dress, was then introduced, and
proceeded to discharge the duty
assigned to him. [A synopsis of
Captain Alston's address will appear
in our next issiA.] At the conclu
sion Captain Als.ton's oration, Gen
oral Bratton arose, and, holding a
battle -scarred banner in his hand,
stated that the present occasion
seemed to him a fit and appropriate
pne to turn over to the Association
about to be organized .a sacred relic,.
,one that many may have forgotten,
but one which he was happy to say
had been preserved, and which he
would n ow deliver up to those who
were its rightful owners. In the
course of his eloquent and feeling
remarks, Gen. Bratton . paid a
handsome tribute to the fighting
qualities of the "Old Sixth," and
raid further that during his whole
official connection with the Regi
pient, it had never received an order
that it dj I nqt promptly obey.
General Bratton then handed to
Captain Qaiillard a Confederato bat
tic-flag which was presented to the
Regiment by General Beauregard at
Centreville in 1861. It was after
yards replaced by a flag of bunting,
and sent hoipo by General Bratton.
It bears the marks of battle, and is
also stained with the blood of those
who gallantly bore it, and who yield
od up their lives beneath its folds.
Captain Gaillard, in receiving the
flag, spoke as follows :
GENFnj IRATTON, AND COA;RADts :
A few minutes ago I was detailed by
the chairman of the committee of
arrangements-yes, my comrades,
detailed, to use the language of
military duty-to receive in your
nai these sacred pglprs, and
I accept the charge in the spirit of
membership of a command of which
its gallant old commander has just
said that it never received an order
it did not promptly olhey. I
purpose making no extendod re
marks. It stands here, a symbol of
a time when the heart and feelings
of our country. spoke, not through
the lips of her speakers, but tllrough
the mouths of cannon and musketry.
It is here before you, with all its
sacred memories. Iook upoz it,
comra.des, and no poor words of
mine can interpret the emotions
that must swell in the heart of every
man who followed wherever it led
along the line of honor and of duty.
Neyer again will its folds proudly
float ifalong the perilous edge of
battl.e." N lever agin as ip thie
past, will you follow it, through
carnage and destruction, wvherever,
brave bearers bore it though you
should die for it. But itsa usefulness
is n.qt goi)e. Covered.all over with,
honore and glorious n4enigries, we
can make it a rallying point in our
assumed task of reviving and
perpetuating them, and of a vindi,.
cation of men who suffered and
died around it for what they
conc.eived anid knew to be the
right.. In the past it was guarded
and protected by brave rron. In
the future, in your names, comrades,
I promise it shall be guardedl witli
faithful care and cherishled with
deepost and tenderest affection.
The business of organizing a Sur
vivors' As socia#9~n was now entered
into. Capt. R. C. Clowney nlade a
motion, which was adopted, to ap
point a committee of one from each
company to frame a constitution.
This committee subsequently re
ported that they could not do th?ei.r
work in the short time allowed them,
and recommended that until a con
stitution be adopted the officers of
the Association shall be a president,
two vice-presidents, a secretary,
and a treasurer. Acting upon this
recommendation, the following offi.
cers were elec,ted, og mnotion of
Captairl Alston .
President-G en. Jno. B3ratton.
Vice-Presidents-Maj. J. L. Coker,
Capt. W. D. Cousar.
Secretary-Capt. H. A. Gaillard.
Treasurer-W. H.. Hardin.
On motion, tlle follQwing corn..

Tl;e Association then adjournod
sine die.
Not the least enjoyable feature
pf the dqy was the bountiful and
elegant dinner prepared for tho
survivors. The attack was made
at2 p. in., and the condition of tile
t tibles afterwards showed that the
veterans could eat as well as it is
said they could and did fight in
"war times." The arrangements
throughout were perfect, and td,
mirably carried out under the super
vision of the committee, presided
Qver by Capt. Cousar. Our reporter
received many courtesies, for which
lie is profoundly grateful, and nun
bers the day as amongst the pleas
antest of his life.
